[14.04] Electron Acceleration and Propagation in Solar Flares

D. Alexander (LMSAL)

The RHESSI hard X-ray imaging and spectroscopy data provide
an unprecedented opportunity to investigate the properties
of the particle distributions responsible for the observed
hard X-ray emission. Photon inversion and forward-fitting
techniques have enabled the participants of the RHESSI
electron acceleration and propagation working group to make
significant progress in understanding the temporal, spatial,
and spectral nature of accelerated particle populations in
solar flares. In this talk, I will summarize what we are
learning about the role of electrons from RHESSI and
highlight some ideas from work in progress.
